Hosted by Karena Dawn, cofounder of Tone It Up and your favorite wellness bestie, this is the girlfriend group chat you actually want to be in. The one where we laugh so hard our mascara migrates, unpack the stuff that’s been sitting on our hearts, and walk away feeling—finally—seen. Every episode is an invitation to step out of the relentless “do more, be more, achieve more” swirl and slip into something softer. Here, we explore what it really takes to feel good in our bodies, steady in our minds, and connected in our lives. Think fitness and nutrition with a side of real-life evolution, the quiet self-care practices that actually stick, and the private girl talk rarely shared in public. No posturing. No perfection. Just honest conversations about the glow-ups, the growing pains, the rituals we love, and the resets we desperately need. Tone It Down Tuesdays are your new anchor. A place to feel grounded, motivated, held, and reminded that wellness is not a performance. It’s a relationship. And the good news? You don’t have to do it alone.

Karena is joined by her girl Deseray — Tone It Up's Head of Marketing and a self-described \"chronically online\" wellness trend spotter — live from Laguna Beach. Together, they dive headfirst into the wellness trends taking over your TikTok feed, from mouth tape and magnesium mocktails to cold plunges, clean girl mornings, and somatic shaking. No judgment, just honest takes, lots of laughs, and the reminder that the best wellness routine is the one that actually works for YOU. If you've ever felt overwhelmed by all the things you're supposed to be doing, this episode is your permission slip to slow down, tune in, and watch yourself go. Which wellness trends are actually worth your time and which are totally skippable? (02:03) Maxing Culture: Mouth Tape, Magnesium & the Supplement Stack Life Magnesium stacks, chlorophyll, electrolytes — the world of supplement stacking is wild and growing fast. Karena and Des break down what's actually buzzy vs. what's worth exploring. Des introduces the sleepy girl mocktail (tart cherry + magnesium) and decides she needs to test it herself. Science experiment incoming! Bottom line: start with one thing, see how you feel, and don't let the 10-step supplement stack intimidate you into doing nothing. (08:44) Soft Wellness Era: Somatic Healing, Nervous System Resets & Breathwork Somatic shaking, scream therapy, and vagus nerve hacks are all over the internet but do they actually work? Karena shares a real breathwork experience where emotions genuinely released—tears, shaking and all. It's a real thing when done with the right guidance. Des keeps it real: some of those videos look like rage bait. The girls agree they need a somatic healer on the pod to actually test it live.
